Flame lab test Chemistry Introduction The lab test performed was to determine characteristic colors that were produced by specific metallic ions that are shown in a flame. This happens when an electron gains energy; the electron moves from an energy level that’s farthest away and to an empty orbital close to the nucleus with higher levels‚ so one of the electrons gives off energy. A flame test is a visual test where the energy is in the form of a color change and the change can

Helicopter Lab (Print and Due Monday) Problem: If we change the length of a paper helicopter’s wings‚ what length of wing will make the helicopter fall slowest? Hypothesis: If we increase the length of a helicopter’s wings then it wall fall slower because the wings will spin slower. Procedure: Materials: • Scissors • 3 Paperclips • Stop Watch • Ruler (metric) • Helicopter paper template(5cm X18cm) Step by Step: 1.) Gather Materials

Physiology‚ Berry HOMEOSTASIS LAB ACTIVITY Introduction: Homeostasis means maintaining a relatively constant state of the body’s internal environment. The term used to describe a pattern of response to restore the body to normal stable level is termed negative feedback. When a stimulus (environment change) is met by a response that reverses (negates) the trend of the stimulus‚ it is negative feedback. As a result the internal environment is returned to normal. Pulse rate is constantly checked

Abstract This lab’s purpose was to test the patterns of percolation in various places. This lab tested how soil would absorb water based on different places. Distance from a group of trees‚ distance from a swamp‚ and different types of soil were tested. From the results collected‚ you can not prove‚ but you can infer that the ability to absorb increases as you go farther away from a swamp‚ and a group of trees. The ability to absorb also increases based on how much silt is in soil. Introduction

Investigation and Preparation of Esterification Lab Introduction Esters are classified as organic compounds commonly derived from carboxylic acids. They are compounded from the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alcohol in the presence of a strong acid to be used as a catalyst. The formula that represents an ester is R-COO-R where both Rs’ are alkyl groups‚ one which is bonded to an oxygen‚ and the other to a carbon which is double bonded to 1 oxygen and single bonded to the other. Esters

Tyler Cowan Professor Foltz Biology 181 April 8th 2015 Lab Report: Respiration Abstract: The objective of this lab was to figure out which has a higher cell respiration rate between crayfish and elodea. In order to figure this out we first set up three beakers to represent our control‚ elodea and crayfish and filled them with 75mL of culture solution which were dechlorinated making the solution acidic. We then had to place both the elodea and the crayfish in separate beakers filled with 25mL of

Calorimetry Lab Problem: Which foods have the most calories? Hypothesis: If we burn the food then the heating released will be measured as calories because the energy stored inside is released as heat and light. Parts of the experiment Control Group-water Experimental Group- different foods Independent variable- Type of food Dependent Variable- temperature of water Controlled variables- water temperature of unheated water Materials Stirring Rod‚ Beaker‚ ring clamp‚ evaporating disk‚
